Just before 19:00 hrs Station 6-1 (Thorofare) was dispatched to the 100 block of Friars Blvd for a vehicle fire. Squad 613 arrived with a car in between two trailers well off and pulled an 1 3/4″ attack line. Squad 613’s officer then requested the assignment be upgraded to a building fire. County Communications dispatched the rest of the district as well as a county ambulance. Crews were able to quickly contain the fire before the arrival of the rest of the district. Command reduced the speed of all incoming apparatus and engine 632 cleared to cover the district while they broke down. The quick response from the volunteers of Thorofare undoubtedly saved this business from being damaged.
